Heraklion, Greece

Renting a car in Greece was one of the funniest things we have ever done!

When we were picking up the car we asked the guy what the best beach was on this island and he told us to go to one that was across the island to this quiet little beach town.

We got there, parked, and went to the ocean. My little fish jedders jumped right in and I sat on the beach and just enjoyed the view! As soon as I start to look around I start seeing more people than usual without their tops on. Jed came out of the water by this time and had an annoyed look on his face. I asked him why he was mad and he said that the beach wasn't soft, there was fish bitting him, and there were a lot of undesirable people had no tops on! We busted up laughing and wondered if the guy knew where he had sent us. After we had soaked up some sun on the beach we had lunch. Jed had a gyro and I had a delicious salad that had flavored olive oil and it changed my life! Also again...we stopped for more gelato!

On the way back to the cruise ship, Jed was driving and I guess he cut off a guy on a moped. This guy was so mad and tried to run Jed off the road! One of the funniest things I've ever seen was an angry greek dude yelling loudly through the window trying to get my husband to pull over. We just tried to ignore him and eventually after 5 minutes he drove away and showed us an inappropriate sign with his hand and drove off.







We stopped at another beach and watched the sunset! Jed wishes that we would have stayed at that beach all day, but I kind of liked our quiet beach!

Now we have talked a lot about how Jed can be very vocal about his inconveniences, but we haven't talked about my pet peeves! One small downside is that I stress about getting to places where they leave at a certain time... like a plane or a boat! ( it must date back to my childhood when we went on a family cruise and my dad decided to  get a taco in Mexico and almost didn't make it back on the ship ) We always somehow manage to make it back just in time though so maybe I'll eventually stop stressing.
